Painting on damp wall

[kmssounds]

Hi all,

I have a house I currently let out and it seems as though one of the external walls are now suffering from VERY light damp. appeox 12" by 12".

All I am wanting to do is paint over it with some sort of paint that will cover it?

It is only a temp job to last 6 months before the cellar is trunked.

Any recomendations on paint?


Cheers

do you mean it is a cellar wall?

tell us about the ventilation of this room. Is it used as a bedroom or what?

Thanks for your reply.

It is used as a kitchen... the kitchen has just recently been installed.

the cellar has a window out and also an extractor fan for when foot is being made.

Hope this helps...
